The earthquake in Turkey in 1992 had a moment magnitude of 6.8 and caused significant destruction. The length of the earthquake would refer to the duration of the shaking, which typically lasts for seconds to a minute, depending on the magnitude.
A small earthquake that happens after a larger one is called an aftershock. Aftershocks happen because the crust in the area where the main earthquake happened is adjusting to the earthquake's effects.
The Earthquake was a 5.6 magnitude followed by 10 aftershocks.
6.0

(The country, not the land) But, lets say that there happened to be a Turkey back then, I would guess because it was a 7.0 and not a 10.0 or something, probably no more than 500 american dollars. (Don't know turkeys money system)
